Emerald & Bows: A Glamorous & Whimsical Style Shoot in Grand Rapids

Allyson Hutchison |  September 16, 2024

The vision behind this style shoot was born from a collaboration of two photographers who wanted to bring two different shoot styles to life: a bright and airy style and a rich, elegant style. The team utilized pink and emerald to separate the two themes and incorporated plenty of elegant rentals that worked perfectly with both styles. To make sure the two themes shined through, multiple looks were included. From an elegant, traditional gown and a 1920s throwback to a modern bridal pantsuit and chic blush bridesmaid's dress, every look fit the glam, fun and whimsical vibe of the shoot! One of our favorite touches is the stationery from The Printed Event, who was able to combine both sides of this shoot beautifully, using both pink and green touches.
